PS3 sells out in first week, but Sony forgets to say how many

...or how few. According to Sony the PS3 sold out fast, which isn't surprising with such long PS3 waiting lines at launch.

Sony said the following about the PS3 sales: "Sony Computer Entertainment America has been airlifting additional shipments of PlayStation 3 systems into the North American market since the launch on November 17."

Analyst PS3 launch shipping estimates range from as low as 150,000 units to Sony's promised 400,000 units. Sony still plans to ship 2 million units worldwide by the end of 2006, 1 million of those going to the U.S.

aRE YOU HAPPY WITH HOW SONY HAS BEED TREATING YOU? LOL wHEN DO YOU FINALLY STOP BEING A LEMMING AND RELISE THE SONY ISNT YOUR FRIEND,THEY ARENT YOUR FAMILY ,THEY ARE MEARLY A COMPANY.nO NEED TO FOLLOW THEM LIKE SHEEP.sTOP BEING SO CLOSE MINDED AND THINK FOR YOURSELF.sONY HAS DONE YOU WRONG,JUST ADMIT IT.

dude, belive me, I'm no fanboy. I own a psp and a ps2, and I love the MGS franchise, its just that I'm not really all that hyped up about sony anymore, and this was just no surprise for me, I said "typical sony" because this is not the first time they "lie" about themselves, its just that ....you have to be real sometimes. dont get all hurt and offensive about it.

uh oh wait. Yeah so why is knowing how much they brought out in the market that big of thing? It was launch, we already knew they cut supplies and are still having troubles getting all the pieces for the system. We know that it'll probably be 4 months (just like with 360) till they get the supplies rolling out. Basically I just want to hear what Sony is doing right... because I'm just getting a little tired of nothing but the wrong stuff. Heard it heard it heard it. I hear that the online store is working. How's that like? What games do they have out for us to buy? What's the feedback on the dual shocker 3? What's next from insomniac? Whens the next 20 Gig game coming out and what's it going to offer? You know News that gamers want to know kind of like the title of the website

There is a lot of good news to report, this site just doesn't like to put those up.

Besides, even if they did it would be like, "Oh my God, Sony gave away a million game consoles? So what, they didn't give away two million!"

It's the typical bullsh!t from a lot of people's mouths. There are MUCH better sites out there for all parties for news, and I am sure a lot of us visit them. This site just produces juicy speculation that everyone clings to.

For an easier comparison... think of the New York Times and then think of The National Enquirer. Yeah, www.news4gamers.com is 'The National Enquirer' of the online gaming news realm, but they get lucky a lot more often.

ehh...you know this is a user powered site right? If you think there is so little good news reported on N4G about Sony why haven't you stepped up to the job and reported it yourselves? Yes there have been alot of negative stories on N4G but that has nothing to do with this website, N4G just reflects what other game sites report. Also you will find plenty of good PS3 news on this site, but I guess people only see what they want to see...

Sony cut their expected shipment of 400,000 way back. Many estimate as few as 150,000 actually got out in time for launch day. By comparison, nearly a half million Wii's were in stores on launch day. Both sold out, but who has a bigger right to be proud of that claim?? Of course PS3 sold out, because of the paltry amount they were able to ship, not because everyone who wanted one got one. Cutting the amount they shipped on launch day with no promise of when more would be available probably helped to sell more 360's than PS3's.

Sony had a max 150k units in US for launch. No store got the amount they were told they were getting. Lot's of rain checks... I heard it could have even been 100k.. I don't really care how many Sony puts out this year b/c THE FIRST TO 10 MILLION HAS ALWAY'S WON AND IT LOOKS LIKE THE 360.

I like great gaming, you like waiting. Waiting for a console that is essentially a downgraded PC that does'nt do as much and comes with [email protected] titles. I celebrate your stupidity every time I play GOW lol!

nextgenwars.com said they had shipped in the 350k's at launch. That isn't as bad as everyone paints it to be. Like PS360WII said, it will take months before we start seeing them in stock and on shelves like the 360. The same will be said of the Wii. I know they shipped more this week. Our best buy got some and sold out.

not just N. America. At this time, Sony has sold around 323,000 PS3's WORLDWIDE. The number of units that got to N. America on launch day was considerably less than that. How can you not sell out to the millions of rabid fanboys when you underdeliver like that??

The reason for all of this backlash against Sony by fanboys is quite simple. Last year when the 360 launched, many fanboys criticized the launch titles as well as the amount of consoles available at launch. Now that it seems that Sony may have even less consoles, uh excuse me....computers, available at their initial launch the same fanboys of the opposing system are just trying to get their two cents in as well.

In my opinion the 360 at least had more than one decent game available right at their initial launch. And after hearing about all of this hooplah about how the PS3 can cure cancer, and deliver these mind blowing graphics right out of the box because the Cell processor is the technological reincarnation of Jesus Christ, it kinda makes you feel a bit bitter as a fan of the Xbox brand.

I mean, you guys who are upset at these fanboys doning what fanboys do have to understand that...right?

I’m a typical Xbox 360 fanboy who desperately needs to be informed of how many consoles you sold at launch so my friends and I can bash you even more on the PS3 section of www.news4gamers.com. You see SONY, the thing is that my 360 crapped out on me, but my head is for M$’s AS5 that I just can’t comprehend how such an advanced piece of hardware like the PS3, with all new technology, could possibly run into problems in it’s early stages of production. Some people just tell me that I’m too stupid to understand some things, but I don’t care because I voted for George W. Bush…TWICE!

Anyway SONY, you better respond to my letter, or my friends and I are going to have a field day on this site, and on XBL …*I love you xbox live*. Bashing you even more because we have nothing better to do but hate everything that you announce, do, goes wrong, and your games.

What I’m trying to say SONY, is that you suck, and since I have no life, I’ll just keep repeating myself on every news post. So take that SONY!!

PS Xbox Live rocks!!!!......oh and HALO 3 is going to turn me into more of a Zombie, hell yeah

Dear Microsoft, I'm a Sony fanboy. In the past I've written many posts claiming how superior the PS3 is to the Xbox 360. I even went so far as to say that the PS3 launch will be significantly better than that of the Xbox 360, I was wrong but I can easily cover that up. I also once said that PS3 games look a lot better than Xbox 360 games, but when I found out that wasn't true I just blamed it on the fact the the 360 has already been out for a year and developers aren't able to fully harness the PS3s power yet. It's a bit weird that i fail to understand how the 360 will also have a one year lead, and that MIGHT cause the games to look a tad better, but... I have an excuse for now and that's what counts. Plus the PS3 obviously has a better GPU, right?! I mean, I know I've not been given the specs (even though the console has actually launched) but it's got to be, hasn't it?

Why do people have to worry about how many consoles have been sold so far. I hate it when Xbox 360 fanboys tell me that you've already sold almost 8 million units, but nevertheless I love to tell them how much the PS2 has sold. I wonder if I'd scream how much the PS3 had sold if it was had sold 8 million.

I've heard that the 360 fails quite often. I like to point this out to Xbox fanboys quite a lot with complete disregard to the fact that it happens to all consoles. Everything that's happened to your console has happened to my console so far, albeit on a smaller scale because Sony hasn't sold so much. Instead of scratched discs we get Blu-Ray players that won't accept discs, You have updates that brick consoles, we have firmware updates that crash consoles. You have the red ring of death we have a console that doesn't turn on.

I'm also one of those people that believes that if technology is new then it must be better. I mean, the Cell is being used by scientists so it MUST be great for gaming, right?! I also think that Blu-Ray is completely necessary. I hate it when people say that Sony's compression methods are sub standard if they can't fit games onto DVD-9. I'd also hate to change discs, that's .. so PS1.

I bet those fanboys all voted for George Bush. I can tell that you know. Something in my head clicks when I read these posts. All people who own 360s MUST have voted for bush. It makes perfect sense, despite many of them not coming from America.

I know I'm a fanboy, I'll happily accept that but I do wish we had a service that was on par with Xbox Live. I'm happy that my service is free, but I'd prefer to pay if I got all of the same features as Xbox Live.

What I'm trying to say Microsoft, is that I'm going to constantly tell 360 owners that they made the wrong choice and that they should have gone with the PS3. I know that games currently look and play better on the 360 but the PS3 is an investment in the future.

On a serious note: No matter what your console choice you've made a good decision. Wii has innovation, PS3 is built to be future proof and the Xbox 360 has a lot of good games and developer support along with a superb Live service.

I don't really think anyone should feel the need to scream at other people because of their console choice. All consoles are equal, just some more equal than others ;P

This site would be so much better if everyone had constructive criticism rather than claiming one console is superior over the other.

**ON TOPIC** I think it's good news that it sold out. It would've been worrying if they didn't, I think competition is what makes this industry great. If we didn't have it then ANYTHING could happen. Still, it'd be nice to know the launch figures, maybe they'll release them one day. I don't really think that Nexgen Wars is an accurate source to quote.

That was the most retarded comment I have seen on this site. Dont ever compare 360 fans to George Bush fans.EVER.I have been coming on this site since the 360 launched and never post,just read.So here I go...... Seriously ,both systems are flawed.Its my own fault for being dissapointed because I kinda expected the PS9. This whole console race is dissapointing...I would have been satisfied with my xbox/ps2 for atleast another year.With that being said Microsoft is not the shady company that all these PS3 fans make it out to be.Last gen..I loved my ps2 over my xbox...but this time around its different.Partly because last time around sony ripped me off ( I had 2 consoles die on me and 15 of my old games wouldnt work on my new system cause they were the blue ones!I know...)Since the purchase of my 360 I have noticed that Microsoft really listens to what the gamers want.My 360 that i bought on launch last year (yes it still works!) is completely different than the one I own today......in a good way!Microsoft listened to what we,the gamers want and made changes accordingly.Honestly..PS3 and 360 are going to end up being completely the same partly because all of the development that is jumping ship and going to the 360.I would personally give Microsoft the slight edge in this war because they listen to what gamers want...something I think Sony is incapable of....

didn't have an alternate agenda of forcing Blu-Ray, Cell and XDR Ram down everyone's throats, PS3 could still have been a killer system at a much lower price point. As it stands now, the price is too high and the technologies are unproven. There are going to be a lot more problems in the future. Just watch.

Thats 200k short on what they promised for their Japan and US launch. What tha....

I have a question for any sony fan....

If Sony was suppose to launch in Spring 2006...then they push it back to November 2006....why oh why would they only launch with 300k? What is the problem? And if after all this time they could only muster up 300k....how many do you think they can get into the publics hands in 30 more days?

Remember Sony saying this last summer that they would launch with 4 million and have 6 million sold by the end of the year.

What happened between now and then? Then they changed it to 2 million at launch and 4 million by the end of the year.

Then they changed it to 1 million at launch...then they changed it to 500k at launch...and now its 300k. What tha? And now they say 1 million by the end of 2006. By a show of hands how many believe that? ha ha ha ha ha....

Bottom line is the 360 will have 10 million sold by the end of 2006 and the Wii will have 1.3 million sold and the ps3 will have 700k sold. After the holidays that will give MS the clear advantage in developers eyes. Especially with the 360 selling 5.2 games per console. I just can't wait for Bio shock, Mass Effect, Fable 2, Forza 2, and Halo 3. Oh, and GTA 4 and Assasins Creed. Its an exciting time to be a next gen gamer.

Microsoft....please release a off road racer....after downloading and playing motorstorm....I know that you guys can make a game much better than that on the 360. thats the only genre missing from our AAA lineup out now and coming soon. Thanks Microsoft

who claimed all the gameplay screenshots posted of motorstorm were CG. Come on TG, you're proof that Motorstorm b*tchsmacks every 360 racer. Until I see 20 vehicles, realtime terrain deformation, realistic damage, realistic physics, and the incredible AI of MS, I rest my case.

Then again, by the time that happens on the 360, Motorstorm 2 will probably have topped that standard.

if this site is like fox news,no wonder it's so poorly done.fox is so biased and unfair in their news that it's just a joke of a channel.they never let an opposing view say anything without the supposed "news anchors"butting in to kill what they are trying to say.but in some ways your right.instead of being fair and balanced,most 360 gamers come to the ps3 side to constantly bash the system.instead of being fair.

i'm not saying cnn is better or some sony fans,but you,thammer,nathaniel,top(real deal,luv4sony)gamer,his son jay the xbox balla)and the mart(course he surprised me by saying something good for a change),always bash the system without having one to play.or buy a system like top gamer to bash it for praises from other 360 gamers.

you claim to be better gamers,even better people,but you sink just as low as the ones you say bashed your prefered system.you're just as lost.if a news article is bad,you're posting MORE than sony fans.if it is good,you're posting MORE than sony fans to tear it down.i put it to top gamer a long time ago that if he was a multisystem gamer as i am,post more news than most,then how come he couldn't find good news?BECAUSE IT IS OUT THERE.HE JUST CHOSE NOT TO LOOK.

SONY SOLD ALL THEIR SYSTEMS THEY COULD MAKE.how is that a bad thing when the system is 500-600 dollars?when we were told at least a year before that"it's going to be expensive."svae you're money.STOP BEING HATERS.GEARS IS GOOD.RESISTANCE IS GOOD.ZELDA IS GOOD.STOP HATING.

because most of those systems went to the pirates on ebay and not to gamers. Gamers actually ended up paying much more than $500-$600 for them. When you pay $3500 for a system it doesn't leave much left over for games and movies. As long as the ebayers manage to keep new systems out of gamers hands at reasonable prices, Sony's strategy of pushing B-R will fail because nobody will have any money to buy movies after they pay for their console. I got a 360 late to avoid all that BS and if I want HD movies, I'll get a HD-DVD player. Another $200 I can handle especially if it doesn't put extra stress on my games console like it did on my PS2 before the laser eventually crapped out. Sony says the PS3 is the cheapest B-R player on the market, that may be true, but HD-DVD is better, the players cost less and it is catching on faster. The PS3 ship was sunk before it even launched. There will be some killer looking games, I don't doubt that, but they still won't be enough to save Sony. Look at Neo Geo. Nearly every game on that system was a killer game at the time, and it still failed because it cost too much and as pretty as the graphics might turn out to be on PS3, not every game will be killer. Most will be average and a few will be bad, just like on every other game system that has ever been made. Sony has essentially unleashed a nextgen Neo Geo onto the market and it will end up in the console graveyard along with the original.

you sony fanboys are reaching for straws once again. You do and say anything when you no longer can defend the ps3. The war is over folks. Stop it already.

I have one account on this site. PERIOD. My name is Jason. My sons name is Jashaun. My son is 9 years old. I never let him use the computer. His online xbox live name is JayBalla.... My myspace page is JLong.....

Is it so strange to you sony fanboys that there is more than one Jay or guy with J as an initial on this site. ha ha ha ha ha...

If I were to make a more than one account and jeapordize my bubbles....I wouldn't make screen names with J in each one. Whats wrong with you sony only fanboys. If you don't like the message. Attack the messenger...Thats what you guys do. Its sad and pathetic.

Have faith in Dusty....He has taken bubbles from xbug/enforcer and Jin with his multiple Jin accounts.

Once again. TopGamer is my only screen name. Get over it. I'm sorry for how bad the ps3 is doing. Thats why months ago I warned you and others. I told yall if you want true hd next gen gaming....get the 360. Now you all are getting what you waited for. An inferior video game system with a failing format. I can give you the facts....But you have to make and live with your decisions. And I genuinly feel bad for any gamer who bought the ps3 thinking it would be better than the 360....

Its just not on any level. Plain and simple. Ign rated it a "D". And gave the 360 an "A-". The war is over. Get it? Got it? Good....

the other day at a gamestop I saw the PS3 kiosk and the first thing that went into my head was..... Holly Sh!T its unbelievable, its awesome, it looks something out of the future, its veru artistic.... and then I played it, it plays even better than it looks... suddenly within two days I sold my xbox 360 with GoW... it totally flipped me... it got me hooked, and I can bet you there's like 50 other people that I know that agree with me in my town... my point is, the war isn't over... I can garantee you that there are like 500 people in my neighberhood that are thinking the same, hec it is even 600dls and I dont complain a bit, cause when you actually look at it and play it... it changes your thought of it entirely, whats xbox 360?? whos microsoft?? I only know now those are the guys behind my new windows vista OS preorder.... its that powerful.... theres like 100million people with PS2s, I can bet you theres gonna be like 20-30million of us actually buying the PS3... its still a good number... man I can tell you, it gets you, it hipnotizes you with its beauty....

i knew when ken said"THE SYSTEM WILL BE EXPENSIVE."most took it as"oh it will be the same price as 360.i took it as being possibly 500 dollars or more.i'm having fun with nba 2k7.i'm having fun with rr7.i'm having fun with genji(the same guy who did the onimusha series and genji one)because i like third person action,i like the features.i like the 1 year warranty.IT PLAYS MY PS1 GAMES,MY PS2 GAMES,MY PS3 GAMES.microgamer says he feels shafted by sony.360 doesn't play all of the best games.doesn't mean it's a bad system.just backwards compatability sucks for the ones whos games don't work (LIKE MY GAMES).my ps2 still plays all my games.my ps1 plays all my games.my xbox plays all my games.in fact,my atari and the rest of my system plays all my games.sony is not perfect.microsft and nintendo aren't perfect either.stop holding these companies up like they are your gods.

I mean everyone knows I have a 360 and everyone knows thats where the best of the best games are and will be in the coming years, but just because Sony doesnt have any amazing games right now or anything going good for them, that doesnt mean they suck or they are lame. I still have never figured out fanboys, I just cant. Fanboys truely ruin games, gamers, and gaming in general. They post soo much biased BS and opinions, that shouldnt even be necessary. I dont tihnk PS3 is bad, (Ill have to wait until Thursday to try it for myself) but from what Ive seen and heard of the PS3, its not a bad system, with all the new technology and Blu-Ray its all pretty good. The only thing that ppl dont like about the PS3 is Price and lack of games for the price. But the way I look at it, from a True Gamers perspective, is that the PS3, while being still new and still AAA gameless, it will all be better by Summer of 07'. I mean, when you take a look at some of the games that are supposed to come out between now and Summer its not that bad. I mean they are getting games like Oblivion, FEAR(I know those are on 360 as well), bhut for exclusives, games like Lair, Heavenly Sword, Motorstorm, Def Jam(?), Virtua Fighter 5, Virtua Tennis 3, Coded Arms Assault, Haze(THAT GAME LOOKS SWEET), Heavy Rain, UT2007(360 maybe), and Warhawk. All these great games will be on PS3 only, except for ones ive mentioned otherwise, and will all be here before or during Summer 07'. So the PS3's future is not all bad, its actually looking bright. Just like what Sony Fanbos said about 360 last year, now look at it, after 1yr being out, its had more than 10 AAA titles and is a huge hit for everyone, whether looking for a gaming system or an online gaming system, XBox 360 just is good for all that. But just because the 360 has been out for a year and has had updated and everything, it doesnt mean that by this time next year, the PS3 will most likely be the same. I just wish Fanboys would stop posting anymore, cause they are getting annoying. Fanboys arent even gamers, they just pick sides and then start B!TCH WARS with the other sides, its just stupid. If someone likes playing one system, big deal. It doesnt change that person from this person who likes all 3 systems and has all 3 systems(ME). So please Fanboys, lighten up and go play your systems of choice, and let real gamers talk about games in a real manner, no need for BS Talk.

I can't see why people hate either. Each has strengths and weaknesses. Yes, the PS3 will be able to do things the 360 can't, but the 360 has advantages of its own over the PS3. Anyone who believes their console of choice has its competition beat hands down in every possible category is only fooling him or her self.

Pick the features (including games) that are right for you and make your console decision based on that. Too many people have that part backwards. They just choose a console based on brand loyalty or hype or god knows what else and then loyally follows the console equivalent of a political party line. To them, from that point on all the moves their console of choice makes are the right ones (why is a DVD drive more desirable than a BluRay drive again?) and any game made exclusively for its competition, no matter how good it is, will not be good. (Tell me again why Splinter Cell 5 won't be good just because it won't be on the PS3?)

There are games for both consoles that I would love to play. To me, the current games that I like and upcoming games that I want steer me to the 360, but I'm not going to rule out owning a PS3 one day and I would never try to talk anyone out of buying either one if that's what they wanted. That's just part of my live and let live philosophy I suppose.

Also Hyperbear Haze will be coming out for the 360 as well (I only care because I love Free Radical games) and proof of that is on their official site in case you care. Well, that's more than enough from me for tonight. To everyone, whatever you're playing, have fun. Believe it or not, that's the only thing that really matters.

I told you guy's people would start to pick apart the PS3 if Sony failed consumers/gamers one more time.

PS3's at Neo-Geo status and the word is getting out to the masses that Sony's next-gen PS3 isn't reaching for the Sun and is unable to even leave the planet(not 3X as powerful as the 360).

Sony's PS2 fanbase of "Trend go with the Flow Casual" consumer's arent waiting for PS3 anymore they've seen all the console's and have been reading the NYT and CNN so now people and Electronics store's are selling and buying 360's in droves.

you feel justified in bashing Sony, by backing up your comments with NYT and CNN reports. 2 sources that are as far away from gaming as possible. Why not put in comments from Gameinformer, Gamespot, EGM, Etc. All have said the same thing. Resistance Rocks, ridge racer 7 and EA titles are OK, but the meat of the product went reach until next year. Oh wait thats cause then it would sound alot like the 360 launch. The 360 did not have a game like resistance to tout around for their launch. And don't count Call of Duty 2 cause it wasn't an exclusive (PC). But look at the 360 now, strong they have their first must have blockbuster that has people in awe on how a game can be made to look this good. Honestly people if Gears of wear is so much greater then anything on the PS3 why not just play gears and don't waste your time trying to bash on a company that is never gonna see your money. Now if you have a PS3 and feel cheated then thats different. I don't have a 360 for the simple fact that it's not a machine that i was really all that hyped up about. But i might have to get one for my brother so i can play gears. Other then that eh, not much for me to want one. For all MS fanboys SHut the Fk up , all the Sony fanboys shut the fk up. If your not gonna buy the others machine then don't complain about it. Both systems offer unique experinces that the other can only want on their machine and weren't able to implement or execute them properly. If you have a system that you love shut your hole wrap your fingers around that controller and enjoy the fun that you claim to have with said machine.

I think it is fair to say a game is exclusive, even if it comes out on PC. No other console has it, do they?? So that makes it a selling point for the console that does have it. Part of the purpose of 360 is to encourage cross development on both platforms, so a lot of 360 games will also show up on PC. Another killer game similar to CoD2 that came out at the same time for 360 and PC was GR:AW. Everyone who is against 360 is looking at Gears and saying it is the only killer app on 360, when there were killer games on 360 on launch day.

i think sony might have sold more units than what nextgenwars is stating.. as of now, right here in my country.. PS3 isnt that hard to get... if ur willing to pay the xtra premium price, then its urs.. and u guys keep yapping on about the japanese and american version.. do u guys know that the Hong Kong version (deemed as "Asian" version here) is out too... many games shops here are selling the ps3.. better yet they sold around 3-5 unit each week.. so i dont see any problem for sony to market and deliver their product as long as it is available here.. it is a good sign for sony...

BTW.. the PS3 will officially launch in March for my country

P.S: why cant we enjoy our console of choice without putting down the others

for a long time man. I mean lets look at the major fanboys (5 each) for each side. Xbox 360: TopGamer, TheMART, Power of Green II, UrbanJabroni, and Microgamer. PS3 : DJ, Jin, Shadowgamer, The Truth and The Great 1.

These guys, there are plenty more, but these are the main guys that make this site what it is. A FANBOY WAR. These guys will never agree with anything, and will always put down the opposing side. Xbox 360 ppl put down PS3, PS3 ppl put down Xbox 360. And then theres me, who has all 3 systems, and could care less which ones FPS is better or the specs, WHO CARES, SPECS HAVE SH!T ALL TO DO WITH GAMES. I buy systems to have fun playing games that I couldnt on other systems. I have no idea who started fanboyism or what, but you guys need to lay it off. Seriously, dont you guys read your comments, and know how stupid and biased they are. Esp PS3 fans when they say 360 sucks and have no proff, when PS3 has nothing to play except RFOM, and ive beaten it already. And 360 fans, quit saying PS3 will be a failure and really sucks, cause this time next year, PS3 will have amazing games, and guess what, you wont be able to play them on your 360's. This is why I dont get why ppl hate on other systems, maybe cause of how they were treated by the company or cheated out but i dunno. Only thing i know is, if some ppl, like me, have all 3 sytems, like them equally, and buy systems to play awesome games and not b!tch about another company's system, then that would be an aweosme site. But thats just the way things are. Ive gotten some respect on here for likeing all the systes equally and not putting them down, but respect can only go so far, when the ppl telling that to you, are fanboys. But what can we do, NOTHING.

and we still haven't seen the final game.NINJA THEORY were unable to show us the tokyo build because of bugs in the code.i wonder what it looks like now?URBANJABRONI,you didn't keep watching after the advertisement.but you should check it out.at least the e3 06 video gives us an idea what it will be like.and the ign pictures with the big explosions.it's just amazing to see a game that had potential 2 years ago turn into what we will be seeing in march barring any hangups.here's the video- AGAIN-as you can tell,this was the game i wanted at launch.but oh well.patience is a virtue.european gamers at least get it at launch,which is cool. here's the video again: http://www.gametrailers.com... and here is some picks: http://ps3media.ign.com/ps3...http://ps3media.ign.com/ps3...http://ps3media.ign.com/ps3...http://ps3media.ign.com/ps3... okay,i'm done.back to more game playing.earlier,i won with the 76ers againt the magic by 3.they had 1 second,but didn't have time to shoot.i need more practice with the sixaxis shooting mechanic.

hyperbear,you're so wrong it's pathetic.i don't fan flames.i don't go into the 360 side or wii side to bash games left and right.you must be blind.just because i like ps3,doesn't mean i don't like games for each system.i was playing games before sony was around.and if they leave the market,i will still be playing just like when sega stopped making systems.you don't know me.but i do see you trash talking alot.i play ALL SYSTEMS,what about you?

I have all systems, and i dont talk crap about either one of them. I like them all equally and play them all equally. You on the other hand say now that you dont bash 360 and Wii games, but you still have a strong ephasis on PS3 more than anything and have rarely talked anything good about Xbox 360 or Wii. Besides, I was running out of ppl to say, so i just thought to put ur name in, seeing is how I see most of the time u r talking about PS3 and how wonderful it is. So yea, i may not know you, but you dont know me. I have all 3, how many do you have?

"There is a lot of good news to report, this site just doesn't like to put those up.

Besides, even if they did it would be like, "Oh my God, Sony gave away a million game consoles? So what, they didn't give away two million!"

It's the typical bullsh!t from a lot of people's mouths. There are MUCH better sites out there for all parties for news, and I am sure a lot of us visit them. This site just produces juicy speculation that everyone clings to. "

You OBVIOUSLY don't have a f*cking clue what you're talking about. News4gamers doesn't do any reporting of it's own. Every story is submitted, from an external source (unless some jackass just makes something up), and then reposted here. All of those sites you seem to think are so much better, have most of their stories submitted RIGHT HERE. TeamXBOX, IGN, Gamespot, 1UP, Gametrailers, GameSpy, C&VG, GamePro...and many more...are ALL represented here. The problem isn't the content, but ignorant fools like yourself, who like to make this place their own little b*tching soapbox.

ps3 first before buying 360 and wii.i'm also waitng for games that i like for both.zelda is one game that i want and it's cool nintendo put in wii sports.can't remember the last time a company gave you a game except when i bought the genesis,snes and the turbographics-16.i love metroid but don't like when they went first person.so i bought the 2d portable metroids because they remind me of the first and super metroid.since i don't like fps(i was in the military so that's as real as it gets),the only games i like for 360 were tomb raider,fight night (will make your arm bleed),nba 2k6 and gears looks like something i want to pick up.i love sci-fi stuff,and mass effect looks hot.they should make a star trek game.alan wake gets a nod because i like mystery.gives me something to play after indigo prophecy.and i know more are coming.

i have bought or still have in my collection,atari systems,nintendo systems(i had three gamcubes),sega systems(love the dreamcast),nec(turbo-16),sony systems and an xbox(nfl 2k5 baby),nin-ds,psp,gba,computer.

so i have no loyalty to one company.i like sony's systems more because of japanese games,third person action,and the exclusives.stuff microsoft hasn't got.no devil may cry game,no rygar 2 game,no castlevania game,no god of war game.as i said,i love third person action.but i plan on getting both.my girlfriend wants a wii(she already has one to play with-HA!)....anyway,i like games first more than anything.i just see this site as being too onesided for 360 so i felt i needed sometimes to defend that part that i like.no one seems to be fair and just want to comment realistically.but no matter what,someone is going to label you a fanboy if you don't agree on everything.
